May 17, 2024The Cherry on Top!!!
I can not thank Marscia enough for her gift and playing at my Mothers Day brunch on May 11, 2024. When I reached out to her all I knew was that I wanted entertainment for my event. I was supposed to pick songs, etc., I was was no help at all. I told her to play whatever, lol. She arrived on time was setup and prepared, so polite and professional. My family was so impressed by her musical talents and my Grandmother gave her a standing ovation for just about every song. She even asked me to book her to play at her 80th birthday party, LOL. I would definitely book with Marscia again without hesitation.
